I've got an old toilet which I have been trying to ignore failing as I plan to redecorate the bathroom and replace the entire suite at that time, how ever it has been giving lots of problems flushing often taking 10-15 attempts. So can wait no longer, replacing the toilet is not an option because that would mean replacing the tiles around the toilet which I can't get any more, in fact I cant even get that shape any more, So I guess I need to fix the toilet.
Looking in the water reservoir I can see a back bowl shaped object I guess about 6 inches in diameter. The base of the plunger is exiting at this point and the toilet handle is attached to that
On the right hand side of the plunger container there is a U shaped pipe with a flattish top. The other end of this pipe is connected to the bottom part of the reservoir where an approximately 1 foot pipe connects to the back of the actual toilet. My question is can I still get new siphon. There is one on Screw fix looks something like it
Is it lightly to fit? both pipe sizes and physically in the reservoir changes and I'm stuffed?
Also I have quite a big water reservoir compared to modern toilets will a modern siphon still work as well as mine did originally? Or will the water through put be limited.
Lastly when I replace the siphon am I lightly to need any other pieces such as a WC Pan Connector Straight
Thanks
